Lyrics
(harmonica intro)
Verse 1: If you?re hanging brother, hanging out all over town,
It?s only gonna bring you down.
Chorus 1: You don?t wanna know,
you don?t really care,
Makes me wanna shout
But your clock is slowly ticking
And your time is running out
Verse 2: Remember I?m your brother
I?m only trying to be your friend
Listen to me and get ahold of yourself
Or you?ll only be alone in the end
Chorus 2: She don?t wanna talk
She don?t wanna hear,
She don?t wanna cry,
But your clock is slowly ticking
And your time is running out.
Chorus 3: I don?t wanna laugh,
I don?t wanna cry,
I don?t wanna hear,
I just wanna shout.
But your clock is slowly ticking
And your time is running out.
